I was on the site stellarium when I started checking out satellites. One that flew by the screen was named UARS.
I thought this satellite reentered the orbit last September 2011. Does anybody have an idea what this is?

Since that's a planetarium program, not an observatory, they just haven't updated their database with the fact that the thing no longer exists, so
it's still being simulated as flying around as before.
